 Description of the problemI was driving home from work and a warning light came on. The warning light indicated that the transmission fluid was overheating. I noticed steam was coming from under the hood. The car ceased forward momentum and came to a halt in the middle of the road (curvy and hilly country road). Inspection showed transmission fluid gushing out of the transmission. A large puddle joined what i later discovered to be nearly ten miles of transmission fluid trail. This is the fourth transmission to go into the car.
